Firstly this is my first post here so hi everyone and thanks for reading.

It's been a while since I touched the game and only started again last week.

I see inbetween that SP2 has arrived. I know for certain that I don't have that installed.

I did install several AI craft from that huge AI database.

I have FSX when I right click on the FSX.exe and look at version it states.

10.0.61355

So have I installed SP1?

Anyone have all the correct version numbers.

Also are there any links to do an install of SP1 etc.

I did buy and install UTX last night will that have to be uninstalled  :-? I hope not.

Thanks for your replies if and when they come.

Happy simming

J

SP2 contains SP1, so you can just go ahead and install that.

Many thanks some good reasons to update there.

Downloaded and installing.

Hmm do i need to run this from a specific location.

I just downloaded SP2 and it says I need an english version of FSX.

Last time I checked that's what I had....  :-[

No joy it can't install as it says I need an engish version however when I check the fsx.exe it states internal language English (United States)

I am using an english version of XP as well the only foreign thing I use is Keyboard settings are in French, as I have a Belgian French keyboard .

Anyone help?

Nope, SP2 does not contain SP1, you need to install first SP1, then SP2 if I'm not mistaken. Acceleration contains both SP1 and SP2, but in fact it install them one after the other.
